    I didn't pay them much attention last time but now I have Eduardo using Brave Ballad and my 800 HP attack is now doing 1000. Has anyone gotten clear numbers on the boosts that come from the various Bardsongs?

    Edward was godawful in the original but then FFV made bards epic and FFIVDS gave them a nice skillset too so I feel like it is possible that Bard is decent, in which case I may replace my clunky slow Phantom Rush Warrior with one (or rather a Seer with Bardsong and Magic Font.)

    Heroic Hymn is nice. It packs a multi-target Attack up, Magic attack up, Healing power up, agility up that stacks with war cry and haste. I suspect if you had a full attack party where everyone can deal damage, your bard's contribution would be worthwhile, because 4 characters are then dealing more damage each at a faster rate. They also have a good MP pool, so are good candidates to be doing Mighty Wall, Hastega, Full Cure, etc.

    Requiem is okay, but pure undead mobs are rare in late game, and dire dirge is too gimmicky to be that useful.
